I think Any sensible British person would realize that the EU is a major power next door and it's much more beneficial to be part of it and privy to everything going on and at least have some kind of influence from within it.

You cannot change your geographic location UK, you will always be part of Europe, so you might as well have a say on what goes on in it. Better than just trying to bury your head in the sand and pretend it doesn't effect you.

It's always better to have as strong a voice as you can, and being a member of the EU gives you a much stronger voice than not.
